Food law stipulates that the origin must also be declared in online retail (i.e. LeShop). This is not the case with this product.
Is the indication of origin no longer declared on the packaging?
I found the indication of origin - my request is therefore irrelevant. Sorry
Hello bruno_dietrich Thank you for your interest. The origin should be printed on all dried mushrooms. Is this not the case for you? Can you send us a photo of your pack (back) so that we can check this? Thank you very much for your feedback. Kind regards from the M-Infoline team

Origin: Packed in Switzerland by Delica AG... But which country do the mushrooms come from?
Dear fonero The porcini mushrooms come from China, Macedonia and Bosnia and Herzegovina. The exact origin is declared on the packaging. We wish you a nice weekend. Your M-Infoline team

i find that really exciting. today in migros i saw a "top offer": 30g dried porcini mushrooms for 4.50 (or 4.30?). if i do the math, are they quite cheaper here?!!!!
:-(
and: are 10g of dried mushrooms about 100g of fresh mushrooms? or how do you convert that? merci!
You are right with your factor of 10. :-)
The water content of dried edible mushrooms must not exceed the following values:
Freeze-dried mushrooms: 6 percent by mass.
Air-dried mushrooms: 12 percent by mass.
Dried shiitake mushrooms: 13 percent by mass.
The tolerance value for caesium isotopes in wild edible mushrooms is 600 Bq/kg, the limit value is 1250 Bq/kg according to the Foreign Substances and Ingredients Ordinance (FIV).
Heavy metals can be hazardous to health above a certain level. No limit or tolerance values have been set for wild mushrooms. The following maximum values would apply to cultivated mushrooms:
Lead, tolerance value -, limit value 3 mg/kg mushroom mass.
Cadmium, tolerance value -, limit value 5 mg/kg dry mass.
Mercury tolerance value 0.5 mg/kg dry mass, limit value -.
The general declaration regulations of the Food Labeling Ordinance (LKV) also apply.
ask istanbul, don't despair. you're better than google! ;-)
none of the 3 employees at migros could help me... hmmm :-/
do you know how the taste of fresh porcini mushrooms differs from dried -> soaked and then boiled or fried ones?
thanks :-)
Was a keen listener at the annual courses in Muesmattstrasse ;-)

Dried porcini mushrooms have a great and much more intense aroma. You'll never get that kind of flavor with fresh mushrooms! It would be like coffee brewed with green beans! °° Without porcini mushrooms, I have to dig deep into the spice rack for sauces.
Softened mushrooms do not turn into fresh mushrooms, so they are not suitable for frying. You need them for sauces, fillings and much more.

I'm sure there are cooks on Migipedia who know more about cooking with dried mushrooms than I do. :-)
I was also a regular listener at muesmattstrasse - but probably on other topics ;-)
are you a mushroom picker? i've been looking for a victim for a long time to take me along or teach me to distinguish between poisonous and edible mushrooms :-)
do you know what dried beans are like? 10 of them?
thank you :-))
greetings from bäääärn :-)
I would have been scattered in the Sea of Marmara or the Bosporus a long time ago if I were collecting mushrooms ;-)
No, I trained as a food inspector in the cantonal laboratory. There was a supplementary course every year.
Swiss dried beans have a factor of 8 to 10.
food inspector - sounds exciting :-)
i assume you have also worked in this profession?
what do you think of dumpster diving or containers?
Was interesting!
No!
I have no problem, but I wouldn't climb into a large container myself!
Instead of extending the dialog here, you can contact me via Facebook or e-mail. You know the coordinates - there's an address in local.ch.
oh dear, my problem: do you live on the street of the small "airplane village" or in the airplane village itself? ;-)
your name is a real tricky one... maybe i was too inattentive after all shame on me
nice day :-)
Dear Kathrin, dear Istanbul,
Thank you very much for your comments. We also agree with you Kathrin. You are welcome to rely on the data from Istanbul. These are correct according to our specialist department. Thank you Istanbul :-)

And what about this product, which apparently also comes from China?
Hello guest
Thank you for your comment.
Switzerland, South Africa and the eastern states use their porcini mushrooms mainly for the fresh market. The rest is used for frozen and canned products. This means that there is no longer enough raw material available from Switzerland for dried mushrooms.
China is the only country that can supply us with the desired quantities in the desired quality. Regardless of which country the products come from, they must comply with the requirements and regulations of Swiss legislation, which are very strict. The quality is regularly tested by a laboratory.
We hope that our reasoning is fully comprehensible.
Best regards from the M-Infoline team

100g of porcini mushrooms are packed in a bag that is far too big. That looks really funny. Too bad for the environment. Couldn't the packaging be adapted to the contents?
Otherwise, the porcini mushrooms are ok and taste great.
Dear guest
The bags will be adjusted around April 2012.
Best regards from your M-Infoline team

Dear Infoline
Unfortunately, the packaging still looks just as funny. A real cheat pack! Is it that difficult to fill 100g of porcini mushrooms into a bag?
Thanks for the feedback

I had a very unpleasant experience with dried boletus. I bought a 200g pack (not available in the reviews) and, after soaking approx. 15g of boletus and taking it out of the container, I found 3 worms at the bottom of the container. Needless to say, I didn't finish the pack and my 18.- "investment" went down the drain.
Hello on Migipedia
We naturally regret the bad experiences you've had with dried boletus.
We have requested a statement from the specialist department, which has responded as follows:
We regularly test our products and services. Quality and customer acceptance are particularly important to us.
It is generally not possible to determine when contamination has occurred; indeed, it could be at any time during the processing or storage processes.
Infection may already have taken place during the food's growth phase. The larvae or eggs are deposited in the product as it grows. They are often undetectable from the outside, allowing them to go undetected until they find their way into the packaging with the foodstuff.
We wish you a good week. Best regards
Your M-Infoline team
